Reviews of Brookline Manor and Rehabilitative Services

I visited this facility

I have visited this nursing home a few times. Every time I went there I was displeased by what I saw. There was always a foul smell in the air. There were always inmates just wondering around not knowing what they were doing. In the main recreation room the was disorder. People not knowing what to do. But the rooms looked somewhat nice. They looked as if they were kept clean. The people seemed nice, but after a while you could start to tell that that were just acting nice but they were not really happy. During the holiday seasons the place was very decorated which I though very unneeded. It seemed to me that there was less people then were needed for the upkeep of the nursing home. All in all it was an okay nursing home there were some places in could be improved but overall it wasn't horrible. In conclusion I would say that it's not the best nursing home by defiantly not the worst.

I visited this facility

I visit many nursing homes with my church so I have seen better and worse nursing homes than brookline. I will start with my positive feelings on the nursing home. First, it was very . clean and the staff was reasonably friendly. The floors seemed to be to swept on a daily basis, and if I recall correctly I saw a janitor there when I visited a little while back. The tenents were pleasent and seemed well taken care of. There are two sections to this nursing home. In the first part elderly people can live in a house on the grounds, and the second part they live inside a facility, this is for the tenants that cannot adequately care for themselves. The whole area was very open and the grass is mowed regularly. One thing I noticed was that down a few halls there was the overpowering smell of feces. If it were just in one room it would not have been as bad, but it was much farther reaching. My last complaint is while most of the tenants were pleasant upon talking to some of them they were unhappy with either a nurse or their roommate. This is not abnormal though.
